Posted by Strider3282 in Client News | 08 Oct 2009 | 58 Comments
You will of already seen the new splash images on the Launcher. Instead of just picking one of the top five we decided to use all five. The Server Status was no longer working due to some changes on the server list page so the utility has had a bit of a revamp.
The skill calculators also took up most of this update, with some fixes and a whole bunch of additions. Including a Brawlers Gloves option, new potions, slayer monsters and other item additions.
Another minor but often requested change was the ability to set the hour field on the countdown timer.
Changes and Fixes:
+ New Launcher splash images.
+ You can now edit the hours in the countdown timer.
+ Updated the Server Status utility.
+ Added Brawlers Gloves option to the Skill Calculators.
+ Fixed a level required bug in the Quest Center.
+ Updated Slayer calc data.
+ Fixed a bug in Skills calculator that caused SwiftKit to crash.
+ Cavefish and Rocktail added to Fishing and Cooking calculators.
+ Arctic and Ivy added to the Woodcutting calculator.
+ New potions added to Herblore calculator.
+ Fairy Rings updated.

sarasword123 - if you double click on any skill the calculator will pop up.. and you should see some tabs on it that say SKILLS - FIGHTING - COMBAT < click on the combat tab if your strength is ranked then it will be filled in (if not enter in your strength lvl and select any options and enter your equipment strength and then calculate.....

When i take a screenshot and go to View Screenshots,it doesn't appear at the end,instead it appears in the middle...Why and how can i fix it plz any1 reply
Suggestion: when using the MP3 Player, clicking Shuffle will make the song order go all ape****. Is there a way for shuffle to still work, but keep the order the songs are in?
I really like the spash screen pics. Choosing all five was good choice to me. It would get old seeing the same pic everytime.
'wish that your calcs would have the wildy exp for brawlers too not just the non wild'
Right click on the brawlers glove option. ;)
dark lotus im haveing the same problem it sometimes dose the same on summioning calculator
but if you stop useing the images it seams to work
i want that sorted out asap
kinda boreing and it looks awfullwithout the skill pictures -_-
All good but the splash screen, can't we get it added to the options? Much much preferred the old one.
when i try to launch swiftkit it says "there was an error trying to establish a connection to update the server" i need help =(
The splash images are nice .. the Bandos one really kicks it up a bit!
yhea i love the new luncher images so much i want to keep them any one know ware i can find them?
hey cobra kiss i experiencedthe same problem, i just had to restart my computer then it worked fine.
Liked the update, wish that your calcs would have the wildy exp for brawlers too not just the non wild otherwise i like it all.
I like using SwiftKit, for all the handy utilities - including GE prices. I also really like downloading and choosing between the different themes. However, with version 1.4.3.80 (using Vista Home Premium, 1366x768) the themes aren't displaying correctly. There seems to be a new variable that needs to be added - the stats background is blocked in a different colour (under Display Name), regardless of what theme I choose (although the colour does change with each theme). Also, the background behind the SK icons for Play/Clock/Picture, Stats/Dbase/Web/Player are completely different colours (from the themes chosen and each other). Anyone else having this problem? I installed SwiftKit to the same laptop I'm using now a month or two ago, and it worked fine then. (Laptop died, reinstalled today). Great program!
For those complaining about crashes or unrelated issues, there is nothing we can do by simply saying it's not working. You MUST make a post in the SwiftKit forum (RuneScape Community) with screenshots and detailed information about the issue.
Since I downloaded the new patch, I haven't been able to access SwiftKit at all. Is this happening to anyone else, or just me?
Love the new update. I prefer the old splash screen image, though. And there's a small thing that's bugging me on the new ones. They say, "While Guthix sleeps we play on". The comma has been forgotten. xD "While Guthix sleeps, we play on." I think it looks better, but that's my opinion. I'm like, so anal about puncuation. So yeah. xD
That Crtl + F1 feature is pretty cool. I'll keep that in mind.. ^_^
To everyone posting about ctrl + F1: this is NOT, I repeat NOT a bug. This is actually the intention of the combination key. It is called a Boss Key. What it does is make SwiftKit disappear, from both your screen and even your taskbar. However, your SwiftKit did not close - it's still open. To bring it back, just press ctrl + shift + F1. It's basically to keep from getting in trouble with your boss (hence the name) or whoever you want to hide the fact that you play Runescape from.
I agree, The splash screen looks fantastic.
Also, Thank you for adding Ivy to the calculator.
great update! (: thanks a bunch. <3 SK
how come you "retired" Strider?
Very nice updates the splash looks superb.
@ people who posted problems: Do not ask for help or post problems in a comment, instead use the SwiftKit Forums.
Awww Strider i was hoping that logging channel bug was gonna be in the fixes =[
All others are great ty =]
Nicely Done guys, Good update. Fixed a few Issues but still some left, Like the CTRL + F1. No major but maybe needs a look at.
Cheers
